Bad leadership

Business outlook

Pros

There is nothing much welfare here

Cons

Company’s leadership is bad and toxic, micromanaging their staffs, HR department was not acting as a neutral party and double check, HR often appeared to support management even when it did not reflect the full facts. This company environment no transparency and fairness were lacking. Leadership is failed. The workplace culture highly political. Employees who focused on doing their jobs well often struggled to thrive, while those who were better at office politics could survived. Your additional responsibilities that contributed to someone else’s KPI, NOT YOURS, with little recognition or career benefit and progression. Must be multitasking but not your KPI too.

Pros

- Regular office hours - Pantry snacks and refreshments available

Cons

- Excessive politics: Internal politics often overshadow actual work, making progress slow and frustrating. - Organizational messiness: As a large organization, processes are disorganized and coordination across teams is chaotic. - Red tape: Endless approvals and procedures stifle efficiency and innovation. - Lack of support: Employees receive minimal guidance or resources, leaving them to figure things out alone. - Constant firefighting: Instead of proactive planning, most of the time is spent reacting to crises. - No real time off: Even during annual leaves, medical leaves, or away on courses, employees are still expected to handle work due to KPI tracking.
